A Good Thing

of liked it, if he was being honest. Maybe it was the stupid child in him that was still bleeding out on a street corner for an initiation to a gang that had only about four people, thinking that it was going to be a good thing, and it was all for a good cause. Now he could do good…

still has a long way to go before it gets even close to that type of future. And in actuality technology such as that shown in the feed is necessarily a bad thing it 's just being used in a bad way. When the feed first came out I 'm sure it wasn 't intended to be used as a mass form of marketing, "It was all da da da, this big educational thing, da da da, your child will have the advantage, encyclopedias at their fingertips, closer than their fingertips, etc.," which is not necessarily a wrong…

child is kept in. Is the child a sacrifice for the happiness of this town? Not all area happy about the condition of which the child is kept; as the author writes that if the child was “cleaned and fed and comforted, that would be a good thing” (LeGuin) but all of the good of Omelas would be destroyed. Therefore, the child exists and although the people feel “shocked and sickened” (LeGuin) there is nothing that can be done; until people of the town begin to walk away into the…

technology is more helpful, but at the same time technology causes many problems in society. Humans around the world use technology in their everyday lives, some use them in positive ways and others use them in negative ways. Technology can be a good thing when it’s used in the right ways. Technology can also be helpful, even if humans don’t use it in the right ways. Technology can also be used in harmful ways. Through technology people can be deceived, cyber bullied,…

and I have personally been addicted to snapchat. When snapchat first came out, I wasn’t really interesting in downloading the app. All my friends were downloading the app, so I gave in to their pressure and downloaded the app. At first, like any new thing, I had to try the features, to have my own snapchat experience. I didn’t realize how much time I was spending on snapchat, until one of my closest friends told me that…

Jimmy Cross. When Lieutenant Cross is first introduced into the story he seems like he's a creep. He’s in love with a girl named Martha, that isn't even remotely interested in him. On top of that he isn’t the most attentive person, which isn’t a good thing when you’re in charge during a war. Jimmy Cross spends most of his time thinking about Martha, writing to her, or staring at her picture. When Ted gets shot in the head Jimmy blames himself for not being more attentive to the kid. In the story…

up earlier. Maya was just peacefully laying there,when she feels Mr.Freemen pull her closer to him. She loved getting held that close to him, she felt loved. But the next thing she knows she feels Mr.Freemen put his penis on her leg, she doesn’t like how it feels. Maya states “I knew, as if I had always known, it was his “thing” on my leg.” All Mr.Freeman told Maya was for her to stay still, and that he wouldn’t hurt her. Once Mr.Freeman was done doing what he was doing, he finally let Maya go…

express myself in poetry to others that I had just meet. I knew that this was going to be very uncomfortable but knew that it would be a good thing for me to experience. Not only did I have a fantastic time and learn plenty of new writing skills but the program also helped me take down some of my limits socially and taught me that it is a great thing to do things that intimidate you. This experience and many others are what have encouraged me to apply for this internship. Of all the…

of just promising to. I completely support Mrs. Christine Pelton in her overall decisions and actions, and I honestly look up to her. The results from these incidents affect the students, teachers, administration, and parents. The most important things you can learn in school are habits and life lessons, and if cheating is portrayed as okay then our system is failing. I hope the future brings hope and change, but until then I am not afraid to speak my mind and address these problems.…

my knowledge about the whole thing and that it had nothing to do with me. The whole reason my mother left my father was because he had had many issues and refused to fix any of them. All of this could have been avoided if my father had just gotten the help he needed. Instead he basically threw a huge fit about him not having issues and got divorced as a result. In hindsight it was a good, if not great, idea for them to get a divorce. Their divorce was a good thing because nobody was really…
